One thing my chapter did that was a total hit was a Wine and Cheese party.
We had a buddy from a local restaurant pick out two types of wine (red and white) and several types of cheese and did a sort of presentation for everyone. The girls were dressed up in cocktail dresses and guys were at least in a suit and tie. The house was decorated very nice and we of course had Sinatra on or something...lol.
Total success and you got some culture out of it. It wasn't too pricey. We got very modestly priced bottles of wine ($4-8 per bottle) and bought it by the case. The cheese was a little more expensive, but you don't need to buy a hundred lbs. Just make sure brothers know that the cheese is just to snack on and not dinner.
